Calpurnia/At The Stars show

Yes, I know this show was almost a week ago, but between Memorial Day drinking, grown-up responsibilities and general laziness on my part, I’m just now writing about it. Shut up.
Anyway, Calpurnia put on a great show last Friday at the Camel. They played material from their newest album “Glitz, Garters & A Dribble of Youth.” Their live performance reminded me a lot of Jet with their excessive amount of energy. The guys were really nice and laid back. Pretty much the dudes you hang out with at the bar.
Acalasia and Rome In a Day opened up the night. Turns out I know the drummer from Rome In A Day. That makes me kind of famous. Go ahead. Bow down.
At The Stars didn’t go on until midnight and many people had left already. Damn shame because these guys had the best set of the night. They played new material from their upcoming album. I recognized one song from their set and loved all the new songs. This band is highy highly recommended. Not many bands out there can keep a crowd energized into the late hours.
I’ll try to be more timely with the next post.
